For the 2024 Youth Summit, Ontario Nature, the Indigenous Environmental Institute at Trent University, Plenty Canada, and Walpole Island Land Trust will be partnering with our leaders on the Youth Council and Youth Circle for Mother Earth’s Coordinating Circle to offer a unique, cross-cultural event for youth across Ontario.

On September 22–24, 2023, young environmental leaders from across the province came together at Camp Wahanowin on Anishinaabe (Chippewas of Rama First Nation) territory near Orillia for the fourteenth annual Youth Summit in partnership with Ontario Nature, the Indigenous Environmental Institute at Trent University, Plenty Canada and Walpole Island Land Trust. The event, also partnered with youth leaders from the Youth Council and Youth Circle for Mother Earth’s Coordinating Circle, allowed over sixty youth from 42 communities to participate in workshops, a cultural humility session, sharing circles and group activities.
